Chapter 2

Nico: Nico-Nico-Ni! I'm everyone's favorite idol, Nico!Kotori: Nico, this person has come to help us out.Nico: I see. So you brought them to meet the club president first. Smart thinking.Maki: We met them first...Nico: In the world of school idols, I am front and center. My name's Nico Yazawa. Remember that.Rin: You sound like a basketball player or something...Maki: It's safe to ignore about half of what Nico says.Nico: ... Kotori: Ha ha ha...Nico: You! You look like you don't know that much about idols.Nico: I'll teach you the important stuff... Oh yeah! Like the Leader position!Nico: It wouldn't be exaggerating to say that the success or failure of a live show falls completely to the Leader.Hanayo: The Leader position is the star of the team. Depending on the situation, they can completely change the feel of a song.Honoka: Even in the same Team, you might want to the Leader, depending on the song.Nico: That's right! For now, you should just go ahead and set me, Nico Yazawa, as the Leader.Maki: Feel free to ignore her.Nico: ...Maki! Honoka: Nico and Maki are always like that.Umi: Setting that aside, it would be good for you to understand the purpose of the Leader position.Hanayo: Yeah! Let's study it together!

Part 2

Nico: As you can see, the Leader position is super important.

Hanayo: Being in the Leader position is a badge of honor for any idol.Maki: Well, unlike Nico, I don't really have any interest in being the Leader, so it's fine with me.Nico: Aha...Maki: Wh-What?Nico: This again. I know all about it. The secret song that you're writing a song for the day you finally get to be the Leader. Maki: Hey... Th-there's nothing wrong with that! Maki: It's absolutely normal to write a song to match the image of the person in the Leader position.Honoka: Wow, what kind of song is it? I really want to hear it!Maki: It-It's nothing special...Umi: I'm interested, too.Kotori: Me too! I really want to hear it!Rin: I really want you to play it for me!Hanayo: With Maki as Leader... It would have to be something really cool!Maki: Ugh... Forget it!Honoka: Wait up, Maki!

Honoka: S-Somehow we ended up outside the school while we were chasing after Maki...Rin: You don't have to run away like that...Maki: Pfft...Nozomi: Oh my! Good to see everyone together!Honoka: Nozomi...Nozomi: Oh, nice to meet you. I'm Nozomi Tojo, a third-year and vice president of the student council.Umi: It's impressive that you fund your way here.Nozomi: It's because I have this.Rin: Oh, on of your treasured tarot cards!Nozomi: It says that if I wait here, the person I'm waiting for will come.Hanayo: That's the spiritual leader of µ's for you...Nozomi: Are you running the new Member through orientation right now?Kotori: Yeah. They're getting a lot of experience.Hanayo: You pick it all up so quickly... It's amazing.Nico: Well, at least you're not useless.Nozomi: Well, time to use everything we've learned then.Nozomi: During a Live Show, you can use Special Skills to appeal to the audience.Umi: When you use a Special Skill, the atmosphere of a live show will change drastically. Nozomi: Want to try it out?

Part 3

Kotori: Doing great!

Nozomi: Keep in mind, during a Live Show, there won't be many chances to appeal to the audience, so think hard before you decide.Honoka: I see... How informative...Umi: You should've known these by now...Honoka: H-Hey, Umi! I just want to make sure I know how it works!Umi: (Stare) Honoka: Umm... Maki: Rin, too!Rin: What're you talking about? Hanayo: Rin...Nico: Speaking of which, Nozomi, did Eli say anything to you?Nozomi: Oh yeah. Eli asked me to come back to the student council room.Kotori: I wonder why?Umi: I'd like to introduce you, anyway. Let's head over!Honoka: Yeah!

Eli: Nice to meet you. I see you're met everyone already.Honoka: Yeah!Eli: My name is Eli Ayase. I'm a third-year student and the president of the student council here at Otonokizaka High.Honoka: Eli isn't just on the student council, she's also a member of µ's.Hanayo: She's really dependable, so we rely on her!Maki: She's definitely different from a certain other third-year student.Nico: What'd you say? Eli: Please excuse this noisy lot.Eli: Anyway, thanks for going to all of this trouble for us.Eli: We're looking forward to working with you.Rin: Nice to meet you!Hanayo: If there's anything you don't understand, please feel free to ask.Nico: At least... try not to hold us back, all right...? Ouch! That hurt, Nozomi!Nozomi: Take your time. Let's work together!Maki: Looking forward to it!Kotori: We talked about a lot of things all in one conversation...
